Any character customization?

[Tsukimori]

Just wondering if i can customize the main character.... can i be female in the game? or it's always the same character and look and male even if you died and get another character?

[¥ann-L]

no,
start with a white man, die
continue with a young woman, die
continue with a black man... i am with this one now.
After him, i dont know,
but no customization.

As said.. you character changes every time you die. You can customize anything.. You will be given a gender, a name and a profession.

From what i understand you cycle between afew set models as you die and die again.

Though i believe you always start as a white male with a shaved head, red overshirt and white undershirt.

I would really like getting a random survivor at the very beginning of the game, instead of always that shaved slightly russian dude Liro is talking about (You even get different looking hands depending on your clothes/skin color!).

I've noticed by getting the good ending, when you are shown getting into the chopper, that whatever character you're playing as is the one getting in.

This means the cutscenes are in real time (Not FMV's), if it was an FMV, a previously made cutscene (Stands for Full Motion Video), we would have been shown the shaved dude, always.

My point is, if they gave you a random survivor since the beginning, you would see this random one in the beginning cutscene instead of always the shaved guy, so they don't even need to bother with modifying the cutscene!

what it might be is a mix of FMV and In-Game cutscene, switching from FMV to in-game cutscene the moment your character would make an appearance.

The first 3 I think are always the same after that I do not know.

The first cutscene is pre rendered. That's why you always start with the same dude. The last one is in real time because you could be any survivor at that point.

The survivors are not random either. You start with tha shaved dude, then you get a blonde girl with a jeans skirt.. then a black cop... and so on. It's always the same people in the same order.

Oh, lame :(

I hear ya.. The idea of random people and permanent death is great, but it should be really random everytime you play or die... Maybe on the sequel someday they will improve that.

I got those and I was really glad to finally play with a girl but then I died lool continued with a black police man and then I died at the buck palace -_- Now I'm a white senior manager... let's see for how long rofl

UPDATE: Well I guess he lived for about 30 minutes ROFL and now I'm a girl again. I do have to say that this was a pretty stupid death, I was in the water and I saw a zombie coming towards me so I was ready to kill him but suddenly my character automatically picked something up like a barrel (I don't know what it was) and I couldn't use any weapons to kill the zombie, or do anything really, since my arms were up lol so I ended up being his meal... oh well...

UPDATE: The thing the previous character was holding was the backpack because the water got a bit deep loool I had to go there again with the new char to retrieve my gear. Duh, I didn't realize that the only thing I needed to do was step back and I would've been fine...

[Cyandos]

Step back, or, what the game must have wanted you to do, was go into the platform on the right, get your weapon out and kill him. I stepped back my first time though lol

you all know how watch dogs legion has something like an "customisation by the cheat engine" mod on nexus?...i wonder why no one so far make something like this yet...i just hope that some talented modder sees this comment-suggestion and even makes it...

to whoever who uses my "idea" - good luck...


[ edit - NOW i realised that it's an dead discussion, so sadly no one will most likely see this....but still...whoever who dares to do it - good luck ]
